Ready in less than 15 minutes, our Speediest Sambal Teriyaki Beef Noodles are inspired by a takeaway favourite. Teriyaki's name comes from the Japanese 'teri', meaning 'shine' and 'yaki' meaning fried or grilled, while sambal contains herbs and spices such as red chillies, lemongrass and tamarind to give vibrant heat.

Cooking Steps
- Trim the carrot. Chop into half moons about 0.5cm thick.
- Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on high heat.
- Once hot, fry the beef and carrot, 5-6 mins.
- Break up the mince as it cooks, then drain the fat. Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and utensils after handling raw meat. Cook so there's no pink in the middle.
- Meanwhile, boil a full kettle. Pour it into a saucepan with 0.5 tsp salt on high heat.
- Boil the noodles, 4 mins.
- Once cooked, drain in a sieve and run under cold water to stop them sticking together.
- While everything's cooking, open the remaining sachets.
- Stir the pea pods, teriyaki, soy, sambal (add less if you'd prefer things milder), honey and water (see pantry for both) into the beef.
- Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat. Simmer, 1-2 mins.
- Add the cooked noodles. Stir to coat, 1-2 mins.
- Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed. Add a splash of water if it's too thick.
- Share the noodles between your bowls.
- Sprinkle over the sesame seeds to finish.
- Enjoy!

Review summary
Updated on Aug 2026- Flavour: The sweet-and-spicy sauce delivers bold, satisfying flavours, though some find it quite rich or sweet and suggest using less teriyaki sauce and honey to balance the dish.
- Ease of prep: This is a genuinely quick and straightforward recipe to put together, with clear instructions and accurate timings, though allow closer to 15-20 minutes rather than 10.
- Suggestions: Add chilli flakes for extra heat, or pre-boil the carrots if you prefer them softer; some cooks swap the beef mince for stir-fry strips to change the texture of the dish.
- Next-day meals: The dish keeps well and makes a satisfying lunch the following day, served hot or cold.
- Portions: Some find the portion a little on the small side, so consider bulking it out with extra vegetables such as pak choi.
